In the U.S. a lot of the beer is brewed with corn in an attempt to get alcohol at minimal cost. The result, IMHO, is minimal taste but some people like it. Just grind the blue corn with your specialty grains or with the base grains, if you're an all-grain brewer. Don't count on blue beer though, unless you add some blue food color too.<br><b>References : </b><br> If it’s edible, sombody has probably tried to brew with it.

It's doubtful that it's going to have much effect on the color or flavor if you're only using it as an adjunct. You might try using it as about 50% of your grain bill during the initial mash and allow extra time for starch conversion. Make sure your corn is well ground...though you're likely to end up with extra trub.<br><b>References : </b><br> Yes you can.
